    How to troubleshoot Remington RM1025P Saw when the motor will not start?
    • M
      Mitchell PowellJul 27, 2025
      If the motor of your Remington Saw won't start, ensure the extension cord is securely connected to both the unit and the power source. Also, check if the GFCI in the outlet has tripped and reset it if needed. Another potential cause is a tripped breaker switch, which you can reset in your home's electrical panel. Finally, make sure you are pressing and holding the throttle lockout before squeezing the throttle control.

      If the guide bar and saw chain of your Remington Saw are running hot or smoking, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the saw chain tension is too tight and adjust it. Secondly, ensure that the saw chain and guide bar have sufficient oil by filling the chain oil reservoir and pressing the chain oil bulb as needed. Lastly, inspect the guide bar groove and oil passages for dirt and clean them thoroughly.
